[delta_v] Requesting for volunteers - tutorials

[Don Malone]

Well I would love to read this tutorial when it is done, being that I have
absolutely _NO_ programming or plug-in making experience.  But, I would have
a blast making plug-ins for EVN, so I hope it turns out good!!

> Currently, the following resources are being worked on: gövt, mīsn, oütf,
> shīp, spöb, wëap + düde, flët and përs (and possibly Jünk) + chär, nëbu,
> ränk, röid, and dësc + PICT/rlë8/rlëD, and spīn/shän. The remaining

> If you would like to help with the resources, please follow the following

> 
> - Make sure you're explaining them for the NovaTools!
> - It must be written in a clear, easy-to-understand manner.
> - Make sure to have other people proof-read the document for accuracy of
> information, spelling & grammar, clarity, etc.,  and also have them offer
> you suggestions and ideas.
> - Use examples and links wherever necessary.
> - Keep in mind that your words will be displayed next to the screenshots
> (The entire window on the top of the page, and possibly screenshots of each
> of the grouped [boxed] fields).
> - At the bottom of the page, please provide the list of links to other
> related areas (for example, a shän resource page may link to dësc, PICT,
> snd, rlë8, rlëD, shīp, etc., as well as any other external tutorials such as
> a "how to create ships" tutorial.
> 
> It would be great if you could (in the forums) point out some helpful links.

> As a side note, some people might be interested in EVNEP, a community based
